I have just come up with an absolutely crazy idea. I should probably be shot in the face! So here it is:
SegWit and LN would push a lot of the transactions offchain. So people running LN nodes would collect some fees. Ideally these would be much cheaper than today's on-chain trans fees, but there could be a lot more of them.
What exactly is preventing miners/pools from running LN nodes and earn some tasty fees? Lactose intolerance? Their inability to compile C++11 code? The fact that they have no more space for an extra virtual server for the LN node in their multi football field sized mining farm?
Please enlighten me!
Setting up LN node doesn't require ASICs produced by Bitmain. Thus I gather why miners don't like seg witness nor lightning? Yep. If you want to know the true centralization rate of bitcoin network you have to calculate the % of hash power produced by Bitmain ASICs.

Looking bearish
Yes. Big dump expected because we tested the support below 1000$ 3 time now. We would likely go furhter south it seems. Wow. You're real talent. 4 out of 5 predictions wrong.

I had something like that in the back of my mind but I've never gave it much thought. Now I see many things which I was clearly missing, thanks becoin.

Mmm, if everybody starts agreeing with me, I might have to reconsider  No trust yourself. The law of the 3 dead cat bounces always works. 3x testing lowest support= breaking trough support.

Or where's the next move up to if there's no dump? Specifics, please. Then it will be clear who was right and who was wrong after the fact.

Dump will happen because of fear for a bear market, and lots of traders will jump on the Eth train that started yesterday

So basically your target is ~$800 and if it goes below that, hello bear.

I am calling 750-ish as intermediate bottom, 500-ish as final bottom. Hopefully people come to their senses by then.

Ok, thank you. Now we will see if it comes to pass.  Personally I think it's quite possible that the market's nerves around BU and the failed ETF bid are still to play out.

Looks like Litecoin is on its way to activate SegWit, almost at 50% now for the last 8064 blocks. The market also seems to like it. Bitcoin next?

ETF is not an influencer anymore. The true reason for this range trading is end of March. Bitcoin businesses have to pay taxes. They are net sellers. Once March is over, uptrend will be reinstated with full power. Best time to buy back their bitcoins for average traders and whales that panic sold at the bottom is this weekend. That will be their last chance! With every day we come close to the end of month this window of opportunity is disappearing for that unfortunate group.

I already earned 1 btc today. Not bad. So i keep watching and playing this funyn game. See you at 900$

You're very inexperienced trader and you'll need a lot of luck.
