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

But then again, that's a close resemblence of the internet activity map, which overlaps pretty much most internet activity, including bitcoin nodes

every nodes runs Bitcoin network.
not the group of nodes ...

so, at the map, if korea launch a bomb on US, EU and ... JAP ... you have plenty of nodes on :
- australia
- china
- africa
- and all major island in world with sat. connexion

in internet, you have many sick hole when traffic is shape and ... filtered (country DNS from national ISP for example).

Bitcoin will be never like this.

That's spooky, man. 

>“Zombies” in their Google searches.
Because English word?

zombie:  About 167,000,000 results (0.45 seconds)
зoмби:   About 14,600,000 results (0.43 seconds)
AFAIK, Bitcoin nodes aren't susceptible to this sort of thing, because Bitcoin is a WW¢ (world wide currency!!!1)

There'll also be a node in North Korea, at least for a few minutes.

the price fell a little bit and it is stable right now once again, when there will be more movements? i need some action

it's bleeding. There is tension in the market. We could be at the edge of the next bear cycle if this bullrun really dies of like that.

If you're suggesting what I think you're suggesting (and I think you are), that the Oxford Internet Institute is somehow involved in the conspiracy to cover-up the swelling zombie populations in places like South America, Africa and Asia, then I agree.

But what does Blockstream have to gain from all of this?

Blockstream absorbs Light and Hedons & excretes Darkness and Dolors. No point in anthropomorphizing it with phrases like "have to gain."
Just basic digestion of nice things and excretion of Hell on Earth, Blockstream simply is.

based on what?

...lol...

There's really only two outcomes without a higher or removed max block size: stagnation or network congestion failure. 

Like you don't need a gun to kill an ant, you don't need bitcoin to buy your damned coffee. Bitcoin is for gentlemen's transactions. Capisc?

Don't tell me what I need. It's that kind of arrogance that is going to make Bitcoin an asterisk in the history of cryptocurrencies. Businesses that dictate to their customers what they should want are gonna have a bad time.

Says the only man making money on this sideways action.

The $7/tx subsidy only illustrates how ridiculous the coffees-on-the-blockchain idea is, and how critical it is that BTC become high-powered money rather than yet another retail payment rail.

Those four tps are the most precious rare things in existence.  The ability to store and/or transfer value quickly, securely, and without permission is unprecedented.  A gigawatt is a small price to pay for the provision of such a modern miracle.

It's adorable you think Honey Badger cares about ignorant Gavinista fuckwit ramblings and desires for a contentious hard fork and governance coup.

Posts like this give reminds me why we have vastly fewer intelligent people left on the this forum.

The one island of intelligence, the old gold thread, was committed to the memory hole for grievous thought crimes… for your protection. Let's admit it, they just didn't jive with a forum filled with sig ad penny farmers, boot lickers, and budding central planners.

The blocks are full again. I have been waiting a hell of a long time for a single confirmation. It took an hour to find one block, then the next few blocks afterwards were all full so my transaction's still in limbo. Until somebody fixes this I don't think the price will moon.

Shhhh, friend.

Sounds like you don't like the smell of sweet, sweet success and rapidly increasing competitive advantage.

Bitcoin is high powered Central Bank reserve monies. Poors may use dog-coin.

False dichotomy.

It can be both.

Blocks full with no stress test seem only good to me, I don't like the price movement lately. That's a concern.

I had no choice of the fee I paid because I withdrew from an exchange that doesn't let you control the fee. Now I have been waiting almost two hours for the first confirmation, and the last six blocks were all full. I would happily pay a higher fee if I could, but most exchanges don't let you choose your fee.




That percentage of full blocks on ChartBuddy is accurate today, I'd say 97% full is right.
