But not one with the insight to have any clue where this Bitcoin market is going, or why. 

Its going above $5k before the year is out.

ps. do you know what my forecast was at the beginning of the year ? $1500 or thereabouts. WTF do I know.

I don't know.

Neither do I buddy.

But google does.
Intelligence quotient (IQ)
Definition:
Measure of a person's cognitive capacity relative to his or her peers. It is computed by dividing the person's mental age (as measured on a scale such as Stanford-Binet Scale) by his or her chronological age, and multiplying with 100.

What is cognitive capacity?

Again, google.
"Cognition is "the mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought, experience, and the senses."[1] It encompasses processes such as knowledge, attention, memory and working memory, judgment and evaluation, reasoning and "computation", problem solving and decision making, comprehension and production of language. Human cognition is conscious and unconscious, concrete or abstract, as well as intuitive (like knowledge of a language) and conceptual (like a model of a language). Cognitive processes use existing knowledge and generate new knowledge."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognition

Okay, but is it located in the elbow or the left butt cheek? And how many jigawatts is one cognitive capacity?

You really can't take a hint can you. Google it.

Google knows how may jigawatts a cognitive capacity is?

You would know the answer to that if you tried to google it. Please post answer.

But we do know what IQ is.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence_quotient

My IQ was properly measured when I was a youngling at 160. I spend most of my days staring at a bush and worrying about my next visit to the toilet. The only thing IQ indicates is the ability to pass IQ tests.

There is a strong correlation between high IQ and wealth.

No. At least no if you get rid of under 90 IQ individuals. Over that point (the majority) there's not such a strong correlation at all.

You are just wrong.

Maybe. I can't cite any source/statistical, can you?

In that case, I don't need to. A claim with no evidence can be dismissed without evidence. For the rest, there is google.

At this point 40% of miners could stop signalling for SegWit and it would still lock in. Tomorrow is a big day!

What?

I said no strong correlation between high IQ and high wealth. Of course if we only consider people with way below average IQ there is a strong correlation, but not so strong correlation when comparing individuals with above average IQ.

I checked and yes they did, so I changed it to Jigawatt and jigabyte.
So now there is an answer on Wikipedia and it reads "in the range of 100 jigabytes to 1 petabyte."

Unleash the fury!

[kurious]

The question is what happens if mining becomes more profitable there for a while, and then back, and so forth, and the consequences.

its developers are gonna do everything possible to make it more attractive to mine on.

bcash's emergency difficulty adjustment thing is really gonna mess with some stats. bitcoin doesn't have it.

https://bitcoinandtheblockchain.blogspot.co.uk/2017/08/btc-is-dead-long-live-btc.html

the above is a crappy article but it does have a few points.

No Emergency Difficulty Adjustment is a weakness in BTC, if BCash's difficulty can adjust to make it more profitable and miners leave BTC for it, it's big trouble. 

I cashed a few BCH in, I think I might hold the rest for now - just in case...

Nice one, Chef.   

A 'wall of money' - I hope so...!  25K BTC, though - hmm... feels like hyperbole, but I won't complain (or be here any more!).

Let's see if Segwit locks in and then if there are further forks...  A few months to go, surely - unless Wall Street FOMO hits and that wall of money is real.

no point.
2016 blocks are a financial intensive to avoid fast variation on mining power.
slow blocks don't affect the network with the combinaison of mempool waiting list (20min instead of 10min, 50% less mining power ? Not a problem at all ... but that the mining industries thaht they will have a problem).

network can work in a degraded mode with low mining ressource to permit balance between mining ressource and political pressure.

this article is shit because it point the fact that miners can leave the boat in a day.
when you has 300 000 USD of mining machine and 100 000 USD of bill & loan, you follow the money ... not the political pressure.

You mine blocks on a 3000 USD network ... not on a 300 USD network.
Mining are like that.

And it's good.

At the moment miners leave the BTC chain it will become more economical viable for other miners to mine on the BTC chain.
(While the price is stable of course)
