Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[jbreher]

I bet all those chumps who paid half a bitcoin for some bud from
Alpha Bay last year are kicking themselves about now...

Can never regret having fun.

Just like paying 10,000 bitcoin for 2 large papa John's pizzas.   When btc was worth much less than a penny.

laszlo has previously stated 'no regrets'. I hope he is still able to be as sanguine.

I think it's pointless comparing super computers to BTC's computing. BTC computing is a one trick idiot savant that can't do anything else.

Of course.  I totally agree.  But you have to have some frame of reference when you make implausible claims to normals.

[Wekkel]

Still waiting for that 'flippening'.

And 2nd Airdrop ETHD of course

Where the fuck are the bears when we need them?

XD

You are a fake bear. Real bears are poor guys that sold their Bitcoins long time ago (or never even had any significant amount of it)....  well, there's also the "new bears"... those that are still waiting for $875. You are none of those. Nope.

[mrkavasaki]

time to dump bitcoin and pump the alts!

Everything that goes on, sooner or later comes back down.

I recently heard (cant remember where) that bitcoin is the largest computational achievement in history. Couldn't seem to validate this with a search. Anyone else hear this or have links to articles?

Based upon a reasonable mapping from hashes/sec to FLOPs, yes. Indeed, we passed that milestone years ago.

A very late good morning Bitcoinland. I was woken at the crack of noon by the phone ringing and the door pounding and haven't had a chance to check in until now.

I see we kept last night's gains and reached another ATH before sliding back a little... currently $6620USD/$8527CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

AltCash also holding its own at $495USD/$637CAD (Coinmarketcap).

Life is good. Go Bitcoin go.

Don't forget all the "adolescent angst bears", immature kids who think pessimism, cynicism and sarcasm are cool.

They're frustrated by their own lives and love to see others fail.

I'm watching for $6666.66 in USD.

Who remembers 2014 Jun 01?:



A three-year ten-bagger.

Truth be told, this was 2nd time at that level. I seem to have misplaced my earlier screencap.


Incidentally, the worldwide semiconductor industry has just hit an all-time revenue high of $108B:

Semiconductors. Worldwide. What is Bitcoin's market cap again?

oh god i can't stand the curiosity any more

Jimbo who was at the door?

And then go out find a cure for cancer or polio or fly a shuttle into space, literally go to the moon.

Dabs: cancer has already been cured: http://www.beating-cancer-gently.com/cancer-treatment-options

Please don't spread new-age crap like this around. Cancer is still - sadly - far from being cured, generally speaking.

Same with Rick Simpson Oil / Phoenix Tears - Don't want to hear it.

We still have a long way to go to properly cure all cancers.

now you boys are just showing off

Sorry bro. Just answered his question honestly...

What Bob said!

What other activities do you do? I mean other than sleeping.
I envy you.

That’s what all the bears said when we breached $1000 again around a year ago. Now they’re all homeless or sucking dick to make rent.

Think gold...

Every year, 3500 tons are mined (or 112.5m ounces). These require 1300$ x 112.5m ounces = 146.25bn USD.

Now these 146 billion, is for every year. Another 146bn will be needed next year, and the year after that, etc etc etc - expanding into cash requirements of the trillions range (1.5 trillion for 10 years of gold mining production).

The entire Bitcoin marketcap, in comparison, is just the money needed to absorb just a few months of the global gold mining production.

With This kind of rising i cannot find a suitable game ..... btc is Going to fast

What about :  Guess the price as of 12/31/2017 --- closest to wins xxxxx BTC

People should remit their guesses to the 8th decimal place, then you'd not have to worry about ties!

Also, people should remit their guesses to you privately so I don't guess $10,435.56889934 and someone else decides to guess $10,435.56889935.

LOL I'd be ticked!
