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

[Peter R]

I just learned about this cool idea where anyone can donate to a "pot" and then a fraction of the pot gets paid out (by a bot) to the coinbase address of each BIP101 block found.  As the pot gets bigger, miners can see how much more they could be earning per block by signalling support for BIP101.

The site is managed by /u/NxtChg from reddit.  We've been discussing potential improvements with him here.

I think this is a great idea and it would be good to get more publicity for this effort.  If the pot got to over 10 BTC, then it would pay out 1 BTC per BIP101 block; a 1 BTC advantage per block would certainly get me thinking about signalling support for BIP101 if I were an indifferent miner.

…questions site owner's trustworthiness...

Thank you for bringing this to my attention.  Although the trust system here at BitcoinTalk is notoriously abused, this does raise some questions. https://www.reddit.com/r/bitcoinxt/comments/3mql9b/next_p2pool_xt_block/cvidzyz

is this a joke >.>?

Nope, using Bing atm. I know Google is milking us dry for information, but them demanding me to actively accept it is a bit too much. Passive acceptance and living in denial is more my style.

When searching I get a message asking me to read something every now and then, but ignored it. I have never been forced to agree to any legal crap to do a simple search. I might have been forced to agree to something to continue using my gmail account but I can't remember.

It could depend where you live in the world because Google had legal battles in various jurisdictions worldwide. They might have devised new legal agreements in jurisdictions where they lost,

Google is notorious for legal BS. I still use it. It's ingrained into our minds to think Google owns the internet.

That's it. I'm switching from this forum to:

https://bitco.in/forum/

They even have a new Wall Observer thread there.

There is too much shit from the Theymos shills here.

See you on the other side, guys!

This thread is so dead when compared to how it used to be. I guess that's a reflection of bitcoin's price movement or lack of. There doesn't seem to be enough media news / price volatility to make this thread half as fun as it used to be.

I miss the bears vs bulls cult we used to have here, rockets, moon landing gifs etc

Even NLC is gone now.

It is not a search engine but a service that prevents you from being tracked when using a search engine.  duckduckgo is one of the search engines it works on.

I really don't know how well it works as I have neither used it nor researched it much.  Did it work for you Fatman?

Is it better than duckduckgo?

I don't really rate duckduckgo. While it's far better than it used to be, if I actually want to find something I allow Google's corporate cock to enter me in return for convenience.

I vote for the last option. I already topt out. It was nice to see it hit the 240. Looks like it is stabling around the 230-235.

Well,  look at the poll right now.  We are pretty much at a standstill.  Boring.  Maybe the bears will give up soon now.
