It is well known and documented that one of the hallmark signs of a person who is a clinical Narcissist (e.g.- someone who is acutely suffering from NPD) is the number of times they self-reference in their writings. Just count the number of times CSW uses the word "I" in his latest piece: https://www.yours.org/content/my-past-with-the-ufa-54729249bf2e/43 times? So cringy to read. And then add sources to make it look like a legitimate article. There is no real I/we in science. It's objective. It wasn't a scientific paper - nor was it meant to be. I thought the analogy between proof of work and the Protestant work ethic was interesting. It has been argued that the protestant work ethic is the spirit of capitalism. Personally, were I religious to any great extent, it would be of the Catholic variety. There are Protestant churches where even the singing of hymns is outlawed - too much like having a good time apparently. Not for me sir - too austere. Nonetheless, I can see his point. Its definitely him chaps. I don't quite understand the animosity TBH

Here it is. $5k
I came back from vacation yesterday, and I have to admit that bitcoin is very resilient beast. I didnt expect >5k until 2018, but today, it already reached 6k . Incredible run. my plan waiting for a deep correction wasnt good idea I remember when my (somewhat optimistic) expectation was around $10K for the next halving. Now I have readjust my plan. The only downside is that, with this faster-than-my-expectation growth, I haven't been able to accumulate as much as I intended during that period. Anyway, It could be much worse... like being one of those guys that were left behind waiting for $875 again. It was just a few months ago but for some reason they stopped posting anymore and it feels like thing of a distant past. Congrats everyone

I thought that just seeing $1600-1800 by EOY would be a great year. This is pretty amazing.

2013 was closer to 100-fold than 10-fold. I'm not complaining though

Bitcoin is growing confidently, the $ 6,000 level did not stop Bitcoin, I honestly thought the $ 6,000 level was a strong point of resistance.

The animosity is that people like him should be called out for their lies, not applauded. The fact that he falsified his blog is enough for me. I actually dont care if he is or isnt but obviously I would like it to be a more likable person. For a guy who said he wanted privacy after the "outing" , he sure is doing the opposite. Perhaps satoshi is an asshole.

But why would he give it - to you, or anyone ?? I wouldn't, I know that much. Christ, no-one (bar my father) knows how many BTC I have And that info is considerably less dynamite than that which CSW holds. Each to his own.

a question: will Bitcoin become "Basic income" for everybody?
for example: invest 100 today and earn 1000 sometimes in the future?
It won't rise 4ever. But until it reaches to a few millions, the price won't be stable. Meaning that the higher it gets, 5% swings will be unlikely. Maybe if you will see 1% per month or year, you will be lucky! I hope one day 1 BTC=1 BTC and no one should be able to gain more bitcoins than existing ones Try to be productive and such things on the other hand... For that scenario you need a lot of "if"-s .... For that price to be reached before 2050: - If the population will reach 20 billion... - if we go to Mars in the next 5-10 years... - if we make mostly everything automated; - if the percentage level of education rises; - if the adoption reaches 40%+ of humanity; - if Salma Hayek becomes bitcoin president...- if... etc. As you can see... there are a lot of "IF" statements made! ... For our beloved coin to reach 1 billion. *edit(0): For a market cap of 20 trillion in the next 2-3 years, the price would be 1,2 < > 1,3 million per coin.
