Brexit bollocks

I thought decentralization was good?

Which part of being ruled solely by a corrupt and incompetent government that's set on doing away with human rights in a move that's going to destroy trade relations and prevent free movement of its own citizens do you consider "decentralization"?  

Is a Bitcoin miner mining alone in a prison cell with a brutal prison guard, on a processor taken from a Commodore 64 and with no internet connection a more decentralized solution than the whole rest of the Bitcoin network?

wow, poisoning the well and a straw man in one sentence

I doubt there is any utility in further engagement on this topic

Oh I'm sorry, I hadn't realised from your flippant remark that you were interested in discussing Brexit. That's why I used an analogy to get my points across quicker about why Brexit is a complete clusterfuck. My analogy may not have been perfect but that isn't the same as a straw man, neither does it invalidate my points. It's a very worrying time for those of us who live in Europe since our whole future is on the line and the UK has so far refused to collaborate with the EU to guarantee our rights in our now home countries.

Decentralisation might be good when it comes to money but when it comes to countries leaving the EU, that's actually more like auto-isolation, severing ties with the outside world. And no less centralised because the UK will now be ruled by one bastard government that cannot be trusted, instead of having the other 27 countries of the EU to moderate.

Unfortunately many British voters on 23rd June last year just cried "Yay, independence!  Sovereignty!" And yes some probably also cried "Yay, decentralisation!" Without thinking through the implications and consequences. And that's how we're in this mess in the first place.

The only way I would get married is some sort of tax break or if I'm in the old age home and they give me a special dessert with my dinner when you get married.

Why would you live in an old age home when you could afford to hire and fire your own caregivers?

Enjoy life. Meet new people. Travel.

Be the boss, not an inmate.

Marriage is a great institution, if you want to live in an institution. I'm too old for that.

When I am 90 and I don't know better someone might stick me in an old folks home. Hopefully by then technology will put me at being middle aged.

There will be life prolonging medicine, no worries. But not for the next 100 years

So I'm heading off to thailand fully paid for by the free coins tomorrow, and I need a new suitcase. I'm thinking pink for easy visibility, but maybe an ugly yellow would work too. Thoughts?

I did a week in Thailand a few months ago. Great time, beautiful women. Cheap prices. You start to decide whether you want a nicer hotel for $45 or just go with a regular one for $25. Went to one of the islands and spent $200/night on a 5 star luxury hotel with a stairway to the pool right off of my patio on the ocean (sea?).

I plan on retiring in January and will go live there. Got a beautiful gf out of the deal as well.

sounds like a good plan. I am happy it all works out for you. was thinking about the caribbean, but in thailand my coins will last much longer I guess. once you have settled, can I pay you a short visit?

It seems that the Saturday pump group is desperately trying to reach 4k price before dumping again to 2k and below. They spent all their 10% profit to recover the price fall from yesterday, so they are hoping the naiive traders to make them a gift for another 10% increase. Anyway, the incoming contentious HF on 1 Nov is not the same as BCH split. Wu just admitted he wants an altcoin and the community was ok with that. This time each party will claim that 2x and core are the legacy bitcoin. But there is place for only one king of the cryptocurency! If we have 2 kings we can't expect the upward price trend to continue anymore. More likely, the 2 new bitcoins will share the fate of BCH trading from 100$ to 1000$ then back to 300$ each.

Bro 2K?? Wth r u smokin?? Maybe You want to say 3k after 4k? 2k would be minus 50%...no so low did not expect

Yes. They were lied to.  There should never have been a referendum, it was only to neutralise the Ukip threat to the Tories.  Cameron expected another coalition with the Liberals and that they would veto the referendum anyway.  Then he assumed he would of course win it.  Then Boris and Gove et al simply lied and played the debating game, along with the race card.  Massive, catastrophic fail.

UK shamed, out and alone. The best example of a relative multicultural success that is the wonderful city of London will lose its preeminent shine.

The decision to leave Europe is a disaster by any measure I have seen and we haven't even actually left yet.

if you haven't recovered from your socialist indoctrination, fine, it takes time, and we all do it at different rates
but can we stop with the reactionary statist claptrap, guys; it's vomitorious ffs in a bitcoin thread.
bitcoin is about creating sovereign individuals not sovereign states
you can't be fine with undoing central banks but somehow not fine with undoing central governments

Each party can claim.... but only one will have the majority hash power -I think the value will follow the chain with the most- which will be the Segwitx2 chain from the looks of things at the moment......

 ....game of chicken.

(most users it seems ,prefer to err on the side of caution - and simply opt to keep both /all three coins anyways- so for users and hodlrs its not much of an issue... for the pesky bitcoiners trying to one up their comrades in this zero sum game with aggressive trading to accumulate  more coins... it is more of a problem... I expect the exchanges to be less accommodating this time...though we shall see) ...oh and of course it is a problem for Core


ps- I am not a fan of this fork trend-  fork away- its grand and all that- but get yer own feckin logo and name... but its OUR name- no its OURS!! Grrrrr which part of "$50 Billion dollars" and "the world is watching" does not compute for these clowns?

pps- I don't really think that, I am just grouchy AF today..

Which island, which hotel?

The Chill Resort, Koh Chang.
http://www.thechillresort.com/home/

I highly recommend it.

You can book it on expedia with bitcoins

Nice choice man!!

I ran with the motorbike in the Koh Chang hills, the view, the sun, the sea... definitely one of the happiest and carefree moment in my life.

My plan is to move in Koh Chang when I'll be ready

Ejoy man!

p.s.
I lived over 2 years in Thailand, I have a Thai wife (best choice of my life) and I spent a lot of time in Koh Chang, so if you want any information about my experience be free to contact me by PM

"This time, the bitcoin mania, which has dwarfed even the Tulip Bulb lunacy, should become the posterchild graduate school case study for not only finance, but also psychology, sociology, and perhaps other disciplines. Ironically, for lacking discipline!

I love when these idiots are comparing a technology that will forever change for the better the future of payments/decentralization/governance/ and data...

     with a stupid fucking plant.


These types of idiots and their followers deserve to be broke and sad until their final breaths on Earth.

You should for all newbies make a disclaimer that your 'system' requires you to have your bitcoins at a third party exchange. And as you know by personal experience (Bitfinex, BTC-e) it is very likely you eventually lose those bitcoins 'stored' on an exchange (hacked, human error, government seizure, inside job, etc etc). Not even mentioning the Bitcoin Cash you have not received by not owning the bitcoin private keys.

This looks really nice.
I think I'll go there when we hit 10k to celebrate.

Seriously guys, WTF is a NEO ?

According to the Shitcoin Gazette:

NEO has recently gained some notoriety due to its collaboration with Chinese certificate authorities to map real-world assets using its smart contract technology. NEO has also signed partnership agreements with several startup companies.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Formerly known as AntShares. I don't understand why they changed their name. And the new logo is ugly.
But otherwise the tech seems interesting. A bit like the Chinese version of ETH whereas XEM is the Japanese version of ETH. I.E. All of them have the ability to do "smart contracts" but at least XEM has an API (application platform interface) that is able to use (or compatible with) many other coding languages unlike Etherium, which uses only a single programming language in their API. I'm not sure about NEO but anyways if you hodl NEO in your wallet, you get GAS, which is equivalent to ETH on the Ethereum blockchain.
