Polite suggestion to diversify into ...

The currency that cannot be named

Don't bother. They're all out trading eth.

All that is left here is the core fanboys who doesn't understand they just poisoned the well.

I've got to admit there seems to be much less enthousiasm around btc right now...

Seems like something happened. The core fanboys probably did something that will affect btc for long. Just hoping it was the right decision.

When old timers are selling up and new money is flocking to other coins like eth and monero you know they haven't got a clue.

How many times does simple economics need explaining to supposedly intelligent programmers? Limiting network transactions now is the same as limiting the number of users in the future. Not a great way to scale the project for the next 5 years. Fools.

Yeah I really don't see the point of this whole debate.
You limit number of txs? It means you limite the number of users!

It can't have any other consequence!

LN blah blah.

The reality is that everyone understands that bitcoin cannot infinitely scale with bigger blocks. But it can scale upwards enough to help the currency reach critical mass and then additional payment layers make a lot of sense. Severely restricting the protocol now is idiotic, frankly.

On vacation i saw this bear and had to take a pic, i thought you guys might get a lol.

OT - but who ever gives a shit about that.


There's a remarkably similar bear in a rental shop in Whistler, BC, and for a minute I thought you were there - Whistler is one of my favourite places on this big blue ball of dirt that we call home. Then I saw the sign on the bear and realised, close but no cigar.

Anyways

My first snowboard (and boots and some other stuff) was funded by selling all of the BTC I mined with my trusty old PC. Ahhh, those were the days...

But...
If only I had waited a few more months, I would have been able to sell all of them to fund the entire trip
... and ...
If only I had waited a year and a bit more, I might have been able to sell all of them and buy a nice cabin near Dustys Bar @ Creekside.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

You a boarder, or skier Adam?

Yep, big blocktards get a lot of government and big banks support. They don't need btc as a store of value. They need only unlimited space on the blockchain.

Blocktards...yes, a good word for those who inject blocksize into every Bitcoin conversation.

Well in fact from what I understood it's not really the size which is the issue, just the incapacity for btc to scale no?

hey're going to go with Capital Controls...which means they anticipate a bank run in Germany on Monday morning. LOL

It's finally starting to come unglued! Germans that can only remove E50,oo from an ATM per day + Rapefugees all over the place?!

I see Civil Unrest enmasse in Germany within 48 hours of Capital Controls. Germany is an industrialized nation, they are not Greece.

When bank goes against the official line like that you KNOW SOMEHTING IS COOKING UP. This one is in line with somewhat logical reaction agianst NIRP (cos in Europe they will even have a DIRECTIVE about that). Bigger picture? Banks are getting ready for another 2008 - but this time they won't need taxpayers money to save the banks - they will need EVERYONE'S money to do that - and unless everyone take money out (Run on the Bank) they will tax every single acocunt with negative interest rates - bail in directive is being cooked up by the EU already - so now it is endgame- Check: http://independenttrader.org/are-we-waiting-for-another-2008.html

Sorry I don't read German so I didn't understand anything in your article.

Why are you talking about German banks going bankrupt?

I herd their printing presses broke down, so they can't print fiat toilet paper out of thin air any more.
Not that it's in any way relevant, but the last major German economic crisis was solved with lots of blitzkrieging and cyanide.

$410 in 48 hours is my speculation for this weekend.
