That hash rate!  

Apologies for my ignorance, but what does it mean when the hash rate increases and/or slows down?

-more and/or 'faster' gear came online
-next difficulty increase will be larger
-profitability of farms which didn't invest in more/newer gear goes down proportionately
-[insignificantly] higher BTC inflation rate.
TL;DR: nothing.

@galdur: Before US entered WW2, boatloads of Jews were denied entry. Because fuck them, with Jews, you lose.

Can you back off with the anti-semitism? Most here don't get the irony.

RE: Scarface.

Great story, which among other things reminds how Castro emptied prisons and asylums there in 1980 and sent the inmates on their way to Florida. Of course leaders in the Middle East and nearby don´t have the same obvious idea nowadays, nonono.

Scarface 2 confirmed?

Indeed!

I passed by the bull sculpture on Wall St today.  It seems they don't have a bear sculpture.

We could have helped the Syrians when they asked for help with toppling Assad and getting the country on track, but it was too expensive back then.

Yes, cos toppling Saddam and Ghaddafi really helped get Iraq and Libya back on track, didn't it u fkn donkey's arse.

Why is it that so few people ask themselves why the Saudis are willing to build 200 mosques in Germany for these ¿poor, desperate refugees¿, yet won¿t take a single one in? It's because they are trying to import an army of is lam into Europe.

Sounds like they need help then.

Hopefully Europe will provide better opportunities for them than the Cubans got in the US.

Of course, but these things cost money. Tons of it. Europe´s welfare systems are stretched to the hilt as it is.

I heard a Russian idiom once which I sort of like: "Cheapskates pay twice".

We could have helped the Syrians when they fled to Jordan, Lebanon, and Turkey. But it was too expensive back then.

Why is it that so few people ask why Assad the dictator is bad, because he is undemocratic, but the blasphemer beheading, limb severing, back whiplashing authoritarian House of Saud in Saudi Arabia, and their counterparts in the other West friendly Islamic monarchies, are good?

Political Zionists want a large segregated insular Islamic population in Europe. Corrupt and/or politically correct politicians have ensured that this has been allowed to happen down throughout the years and especially so in the past few months, and now that all these people are in, and we know that there are Jihadi elements amongst them, our governments need to take away all our civil liberties in order to protect us from the extremists (that they let in), Furthermore, having a significant minority population that is at odds with the values of the society in which it is implented, should prove a fucking fantastic scapegoat for the great unwashed, when the music finally stops playing and the Piper refuses to accept payment in €uros, or dollar$.

Fucking ingenius spot of social engineering.

I am not a parasitic Zionist Neocon motherfucker, but if I was, I think I would be pretty fucking good at it!

You can't just set the whole region ablaze and bail when the heat hits you. As should be all too clear by now.

The U.S. seems to be giving up on this Saudi medieval dictatorship, at least weapons sales have decreased in the last years. Obviously civilized people can´t be known to support those headchopping nutcases. Others have been quick to take up the slack, especially the French. So, France has seen an opportunity to supplant Washington as Riyadh’s closest ally. In the first half of 2015 France sold more than double the amount of armaments than that of all of 2014 and the Saudi´s part of that increased hugely as well. Now; I´m just a simple man with simple ideas but it seems to me that if you´re shoveling weapons into war zones like there´s no tomorrow, you can´t act totally dumb and go on a major emotional porn binge if this has consequences and there are blowbacks. After all, those weapons are likely to kill innocent civilians as much or more than soldiers and other belligerents.  

From 2010 to 2014, 38 percent of French arms exports went to the Middle East, making it the most important region for the country’s arms industry.

France voices support for Saudi campaign in Yemen

Latest update : 2015-04-12
French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius voiced support for a Saudi-led military campaign against Yemen’s Houthi rebels during a visit to Riyadh on Sunday.



Well yeah. If you´re selling weapons you're probably more than not interested in them being used I guess. You will want to replenish things.

You have a better grasp on European politics than trading bitcoin. Take it as a compliment.

In other news, BTC moving up slow and steady. If we can continue this for the next couple of days then another leg downward is exrtemely unlikely, unless it's a flash crash.

[Richy_T]

More expensive coins? How so? If anything, cheaper coins (slightly more coins being produced due to shorter time between solved blocks)

For up to 2 weeks until the difficulty adjusts.

Not that you are wrong, but the refugees are the lucky ones. The rest lie buried in the rubble.
