Coinbase has become such an altcoin whore now.
They be in it to make money. They have no ideological duties. If they could legally make money by selling photographs of me on the toilet giving a friendly wave then they'd do it. I'd undercut them though.

$50 is only a 3% now. Wake me up when we are at $2000 or something...

When you have more than 12 BTC, I would recommend using Bitcoin Core on a computer that can handle it. The only other wallet I've used is Electrum.
How can you suggest someone to use a software wallet with 12BTC ($20.000)? That's irresponsible advice ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif) On a properly secured computer, it's fine. I know someone who uses an android software wallet with 50+ BTC in it. All the coins and alts I hold are on software wallets. Do whatever you need to do to keep your computer secure, whether that's installing firewalls or running it in a VM or isolating it from the internet.

Online computer are never safe(just think about the recent Windows Defender remote hole). Use an old pc, which you never connect to the internet. Or just buy a Trezor. Much easier this way.

When I am not trading I do computer security for a living and I know all the ways why it isn't. That doesn't mean it is a sure thing that you will be hacked, but there's no need to gamble with that when current hardware wallets are so cheap and convenient to use. About the guy with 50+BTC on an android.... well, everything is relative, it depends on his net worth... if that's what he spends in a couple of days or even a week, then its ok. Other than that it's irresponsible. But hey, it's his money.

A bright shiny good morning Bitcoinland.
The non-bubble uptrend continues. After a solid $100 correction/profit-taking/consolidation we're right back with a fresh new ATH... currently $1784USD (Bitcoinaverage).
That's $2457CAD according to Google. Two and a half grand is getting tantalizingly close.
Go Bitcoin go.

All of us must have made enough recently to buy a trezor (or similar) without even noticing it. Do it! you can't trust your phone or your computer. Make sure you practice with it a little before commit large amounts of funds to it, and write down the recovery seed! You will sleep easier.

You should stop watching the 1m chart if you are so sensible to minuscule movements ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Yeah, crash of like $5. Kwukduck's dream has basically come true ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) . Remember when going up $50 in one day was special?
Bitcoin's growth is cumulative from our point of view. Naturally we look at it as a percentage rather than an amount, so going up $50 in one day is only special if that's a particularly high amount of the total, which it's not.

Ok. I'll admit yours is better advice. I'm just not into hardware wallets for now. (My computer is essentially a large hardware wallet; but that's another story.) you can't trust your phone or your computer. I don't trust anything.

I don't trust anything.
Neither do I. This is why I prefer paper wallets. Even hardware wallets require trusting the hardware manufacturer. With paper wallets you only need to trust yourself and mathematics.

Can't agree more, I generated the seed to my cold wallet by rolling dice. (no joke)

You did calculate your paperwallets by hand with pencil and paper? ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) Anyways, you will probably need a computer and a software wallet to redeem them....

$1786 on Stamp. Does anybody else feel this is going too fast? I wouldn't mind a period of consolidation for a bit now.
Sideways please.
