your 'facts' are just old, boring, oft-repeated lies (aka propaganda) that have been argued to death and thoroughly well-refuted, what's to like about that?

but keep cranking that klaxon handle and keep your monkeys dancing, some drooling idiots like to stand around and watch the show from time to time ... hey they might throw a copper penny or two in your hat now and then.

if u read around u would learn that lack of programming is the reason why gdax happened .. because they believe ether has more promise programming wise

Well, Ethereum is a programming language so I sure hope it would have. But if I'm going to invest in a monetary asset then I won't pick a 'programming language', nor would any other investor with half a brain.

only people in it are speculators and manipulators

Thats who SHOULD be in it if it's doing its job. Anyone who holds a pure monetary asset for no other reason than they think it will hold its value is by definition a speculator.

.. the reason bitcoin did not pump for brexit is because the manipulators are against brexit

Or maybe you're just trying to rewrite history to make yourself feel better about your position

LOL. How about anyone who holds a non-monetary asset for no other reason than they think it will hold its value?

which part of "bitcoin still doesn't scale" is a lie ?? which part of "pms rocketed up while crytos did nothing during brexit" is a lie ?? speculating about bitcoin coming back down after halvening hype is not a lie.. it is speculation.. ur mad cuz ur not hearing me say "#moonshot .. rocket is about to lift.... the train leaving the station... get ready to buy a boat." like the rest of the herd ... there is a reason why these fools are not fixing the scaling issue.. either they are incompetent or something else is going on .

Non-monetary assets have very different properties.

In particular, they depend on accruing value by productive growth. (i.e. they actually need to keep developing to stay ahead). Thats why, say, the likes of Ethereum have a big challenge because they can't rely on being the "first" to market. It can be much more easily replaced than bitcoin can and are exposed to the "MySpace - Facebook" phenomenon in a way that Bitcoin isn't.

We've already seen that by virtue of there having been hundreds of more technologically advanced alt-coins which haven't even put a dent in Bitcoin's marketcap. On the other hand, if a more technologically advanced smartcontract blockchain emerged it WOULD be likely to put a dent in ethereum's marketcap.

You didn't answer my question!

Why anyone holding a non-monetary asset, for no other reason than they think it will hold its value, is NOT a speculator?
Why anyone holding say a house, for no other reason than they think it will hold its value, is NOT a speculator?

[toknormal]

Sorry. yes - you are right. Someone who holds a non-monetary asset, for no other reason than they think it will hold its value IS a speculator.

bitcoin isn't higher than yesterday.

is crypto done?? 

LOL
nice gif

Ha ha, I thought that was just the old one, but yeah, that's a nice addition there

Good morning Bitcoinland.

I see we're continuing to inch slowly upward.



Seems like staying over $600 is a done deal and now we can focus on the immediate goal of getting and staying over $700.

Of course. But there is more than that. Anyone who holds a pure monetary asset, for no other reason than they think it will hold its value, is NOT a speculator!

People that hold for that purpose non-monetary value are creating asset bubbles which distort price signals in economy. That is why they ARE speculators. People that hold pure monetary value make those asset bubbles burst thus help economy correct and heal itself. That is why they are NOT speculators. They are savers!

Borgan Quench brought to bear on that last rally.

Re BTC [...] Everything is going according to schedule, so to speak

It's sure isn't going according to what the Chinese miners thought was the the schedule.
But you're not wrong, so to speak.

Bears like you failed to grab cheap btc and now they are trying to bring down btc price by any means. This article is bullshit. Its author is someone from Mike Hern`s camp. Btc`s growth is unstoppable.

You seem to think bears are the opposite of holders, which they're not.
Real bears will do the opposite of what you think they do -- they *help* you pump the shit out of BTC, feed your mania, and only when your hysterical optimism crescendoes & BTC crests? That's the ideal entry point for shorts.
