in topic I'm now all in cash with my funds on exchanges. Won't buy back until a Big Dump happens.
Is that not a bit early? better safe than sorry. All your funds, either btc, or cash, on exchanges isn't that safe. Just saying...

I only moved all BTC out of exchange (only one, Kraken). So I did not sell. And kept my alts on (most LTC).
Sometimes selling looks like a good idea. Like now: edit: I'm holding my LTC too, obviously. Agreed, but that was also seemingly the case in May-June... .

And why did they call it Bitcoin Gold? It has absolutely nothing to do with gold (e.g.- a coin backed by actual physical gold would make sense to be called Bitcoin Gold. But then it wouldn't have been Bitcoin at all w/o mining).
It shoulda been called BitGPUTM, or something similar.
Kids these days, they absolutely SUCK at marketing and branding.
It goes along the same lines as credit cards. Maybe we will get BitcoinPlatinum next. "Don't leave home without it." "What's in your wallet?"

Terms like "racist", "fascist" and "antisemitism" are pretty well established words with clearly defined meanings.
what does it mean "semite"? do you know it? "SJW" otoh is short for a truly nonsensical label. It's bigoted right wing nutter code for "not a bigoted asshole".
Go to play the political correctness kommissar somewhere else. With me it does not work. Terms like "racist", "fascist" and "antisemitism" are pretty well established words with clearly defined meanings. Yeah, they mean someone you don't like. "SJW" otoh is short for a truly nonsensical label. It's bigoted right wing nutter code for "not a bigoted asshole". It means someone who, much like a small child, throws a tantrum when encountering someone he does not like. Drop dead Ibian
Hey Conspirosphere! Mr.Stormfront himself is here to back you up. Lucky you! https://youtu.be/l7QAiz2DQgY?t=20"I hate you daddy!" seems like the dips brings out the best in folks around here.... next thing ya know... roach will show up... This is hardly a "dip"... I mean, sure, technically you can say that BTC prices dropped from $6180 to $5700 - but really, to me, it seems more like a pause in the upwards, rather than a "dip"... ... Let's call it an "8% pause in the upwards." hahahahaha Agree, anyone?

It is interesting. These recently coined terms such as "social justice warrior" and "white knight" seem to be used as linguistic magic wands. Powerful spells the mere invocation of which should poison the well of ones opponent. Much like some earlier terms tiredly bandied about by those of a different political bent.
I understand what you are saying that SJW has been bandied about as a negative, but I am more neutral about it, and I really don't consider the label to be as negative as some want to make it out to be. The term White knight is way more fucking legitimate and valid regarding the behavior of someone else, and a white knight seems to be someone who is getting involved in some other person's concern when the other person may certainly be sufficiently capable of defending himself/herself. Don't get me wrong, I don't disagree with the power of some person to actually designate actual appointed representatives and/or spokepersons - however, a white knight seems to be a self-selected representative of some cause that may only be tangentially related to his/her own interests.

A SJW is a communist. We use a different term at the moment because humans are frightened animals that refuse to accept that we are sliding back towards state totalitarianism.

Why are people dumping before the Oct. 25 fork Because nobody gives a flying fuck about Bitcoin Gold. Actually, some of us actually could give two fucks. But that's about it. And why did they call it Bitcoin Gold? It has absolutely nothing to do with gold (e.g.- a coin backed by actual physical gold would make sense to be called Bitcoin Gold. But then it wouldn't have been Bitcoin at all w/o mining). It shoulda been called BitGPU TM, or something similar. Kids these days, they absolutely SUCK at marketing and branding. YUP!

I didn't realize there was an actual time period since the dawn of civilization where we slipped out of state totalitarianism. So not quite sure how we are going slip back into a state that we are already in. Sure, some forms may appear more benign than others. However, when push comes to shove, any government will show it's true nature and unleash its full power over the "common" people. I don't care what label you put on it. Communism, socialism, democracy, fuedalism, imperialism, rebublic: all just the same bullshit. Just repackaged. And no, I'm not an anarchist either. Mob rule, which is what anarchy would degrade to, would be just as bad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPVpMxVn6mk

Mob rule, which is what anarchy would degrade to, would be just as bad. There wasn't. That's the point. History is a cycle. It goes from some kind of mass dieoff (war, plague, famine - death in whatever cloak) to a thriving civilization to decadence to decline to another dieoff. We are currently declining, and millions if not billions of people will soon die. Places like Venezuela are just the start. And democracy is mob rule. BEFORE women got the right to vote, we did not have mob rule.

Mark Cuban is such a douchebag. That guy is so arrogant and full of himself. He makes big grandiose statements like only he thought of them with his brilliant mind, that absolutely trivializes everything about investing in Bitcoin as if it is all just a big fkn game of "greater fool" day trading. But he only applies this attitude toward things like Bitcoin, art, and collectibles. He doesn't apply it to the Great Big Casino called the U.S. Stock Market. Doesn't even apply it to precious metals, commodities, or other assets like real estate. He still has absolutely no idea what Bitcoin is or why it is revolutionary. And he never will, because he is too full of himself to actually do the deep research. He wants to sit atop Mt. Stupid along with the rest of the public and be a naysayer. Mark Cuban's face is definitely on my punchable list.

Let's call it an "8% pause in the upwards." hahahahaha Agree, anyone? It would appear in terms of the likely verses unlikely that the 8% pause in the upwards indubitably brings forth the the most adverse but not necessarily admirable reactions amongst the community of individuals who put forth posts pertaining to subjects of a debate in this here internet forum discussing material that alludes to the finer points of the continuing variable nature of the price of bitcoin... next thing ya know... roach will show up... FTFY
