Sure, bitcoiners have their faults. But we are up against far greedier, more stupid and more corrupt forces than ourselves.
The ICBC pushes its pet Bitmain to make half-arsed power plays, and it dumped a few thousand coins and etherea on the market to decimate the price. Doesn't work.
The CIA pushed Hearn around to introduce heartbleed and Gavin to get big blocks and cut off the first adopters. Didn't work.
Ethereum scams, backed by some banks. Don't work.
No, there hasn't been a concerted push by all the central banks yet, and that would be a proper struggle, but they're mostly too complacent and foolish to understand how dangerous bitcoin is, how it breaks everything.
It even shattered satoshi's vision.

And who decides if the PoW is valid?
" They vote with their CPU proof-of-worker, expressing their acceptance of valid blocks by working on extending them and rejecting invalid blocks by refusing to work on them. Any needed rules and incentives can be enforced with this consensus mechanism." - S. Nakamoto, The Whitepaper i too, have read the whitepaper. Does anyone know an e-mail system based on the blockchain??  ... Or some kind of messenger app??  ... Or do I need to invent one?  I believe ZenCash is working on something like that or already did. |

blitz? is that you?? still not believing the triple digit lie? I'd probably change my name too after the "no more triple digits in 2013" thing. I always found it quite surprising how we could have a quasi-bear shill as a moderator... go figure? |

I'm trying to remember the Nov 13 rally. I'm sure there were a couple of big pullbacks along the way to the top. Did any of these have the same % drop or length as the current dip?

Just remember guys, as long as Bitcoin has a perpetual 'enemy' that rears it's head every few months, then it is doing something right.
Notice that all the shitcoins are left completely alone by the media and eternal FUD machine. They are being completely ignored, because they pose no threat at all.

It was me who was bullish the entire time since the 200s until now while people like you were pissing their pants. Go look it up. What you don't understand is that there are less risky (low risk, high reward) and more risky (high risk, low reward) times to be a hodler. Guess which time is now. |

$600 ago Bitcoin was the future. I wonder what it is now.
The future. You'll follow the BTU fork then?  There is no BTU fork. |

Bitcoin is a network. Nodes are human. They don't ... usually ... follow the majority if the goal is corrupt. Bitmain chain is a corrupted goal. easy to avoid, actually : that's why devs have accepted the -bip148 command line ... if you want REJECT an no-BIP148 block after the 1st August. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1336481.msg19562250#msg19562250but you must activate this option by yourself. |
