5%? So if we break $460 today, you'll pretty much break even? Not bad...

Considering the cost of transferring fiat to an exchange and the exchange fee itself, it's a cheap price to pay for convenience, security and anonymity.

Day in, day out, there is trolling, targeted attacks, shilling on social media targeted toward us.

Poor Wlad, did he think they'd be able to pervert p2p cash into a crippled settlement token for off chain products with nary a complaint?

I can agree that Gavin's judgement has been weak, often underestimating adversarial actions and actors. Handing over the repo to these guys, for example.

You have a bit of a perverted view of things, AliceG.

First of all, the baloney trolling and target attacks etc etc that were occurring was not really regarding some kind of conversion of bitcoin into a crippled coin, as you seem to assert, but instead such trolling and attacks were coming from a lot of misinformation and propaganda... that was partly motivated attempts at coupe of bitcoin's governance....   People seem to be kind of figuring out the coupe and the scam of the XT / Classic crowd and becoming less receptive to the coupe propaganda regarding supposed "cripple coin," and really when we look back at history, we are going to probably see the Wright situation and Gavin's involvement in support of that (plus a few of the other Wright supporters) had shed some light on the various bad intentions of leaders in that anti-core camp (Gavin supporter leaders and XT and Classic supporter leaders)..  Some of their association with Wright sheds light on the scam nature of the positions aligned with Wright (even for supposedly short periods, such as Gavin supporting and then kind of changing his mind).

Second:  who knows what was going on exactly amongst developers when Gavin gave up his sole commit power and distributed it to 5 developers, but Gavin did make a decision to not have so much responsibility and to hand off some of the power to those various other developers because he thought that they were working on the best of bitcoin's vision (the white paper), and after he distributed the power, he became less and less and less involved in bitcoin development and submitting of code and involvement in the core developer group of submitting code, etc, etc, and that was his choice.  Thereafter, he also even involved himself in a variety of other projects including accepting a position at MIT, not submitting code and proposing those controversial overtaking of bitcoin's governance through XT and Classic (by making them appear to be technical fixes) and propagandizing the community to support his "hard fork" controversial proposals.

Anyhow, we seem to be entering into a decent phase in which a lot of the mumbo jumbo misinformation (including the mischaracterization of your post, AliceG) seems to becoming more clarified.

I really don't know what's worse. The assholes or the idiots.

Well I'm glad to see Craig didn't manage to destroy the value, maybe we'll be seeing a few people coming to Bitcoin with a new interest in it, or just out of plain curiosity.

Maybe we can get more people coming out of the woodwork and start claiming they're Satoshi, I wouldn't mind seeing this trend continue  

I just love that picture of satashi nakamoto, even if he's not the founder of bitcoin, it's just such a nice picture.

i do not approve, of anything. lol

I think that that Satoshi Nakamoto was probably one of the chillest people I've ever seen in the Bitcoin economy, and I'd glad he didn't try to snag power for himself by claiming he was something he's not. He seems like a man of integrity, and I wish him well in his life.

As for Craig, however...

what a load of shit.
Satoshi Nakamoto's personalty is a totally unknown, and not really knowable.
personality doesn't come through very well in post's and email.
scammers seem "chill" and seem to have a very respectable personality, until they scam you!
Satoshi may or may not have been chill.
who am i kidding.....

Satoshi was ( and still is ) the chillest.


so chill

How far we headed on this leg if we break 470? 

[adamstgBit]

its going to 520 with 2 legs up in <48hours.

i can FEEL IT!

shits about to get real.

Oh boy you can FEEL IT

As I am highly sugestive I bought just after your post.  That makes it 11 of the last 15 days.  As my daily/weekly limits are small that's how I have to do it.  Also good for dollar cost averaging if that even matters.

Adam what sort of guarantee does the $520 in under 48hours have?  Oh wait it doesn't say $520 it says 520.  I guess like many people I am gullible

yes i can FEEEEEEL it.

yes i meant 520$ < 48hours

100% guarantee!

What does everyone think the next scare story is gonna be to keep the market down? Surely one day they're gonna start running out of them?

[Meuh6879]

Always seems to be something that desperate bears or whales with agendas will try to keep the price down.

Like you said though one day they'll run out of ideas or we'll gain some kind of epic mainstream adoption & it won't work any more.

[orpington]

Actually not a bad shit-eating grin on him. Would be nice to see a side-by-side comparison of these 2 stooges.

like this?

They look like BFF
