For once I'd say this is a good thing. Get that lot out. They would have dumped on the 16th anyway if 2x had happened. All that's happening now is those people selling and buying Alts. No big deal, just a premature sell of rather than next week. |

Surely some TA and Fibonacci numbers predicted this roller-coaster, right?  |

Why is ETH up and BCH down? This market makes zero sense.
Nobody except losers will care about that. Technically I'm a winner. It just seems odd. We're going to need to see medals and trophies or it didn't happen. |

Makes perfect sense...Ver and most of the BCH crowd are big ETH supporters. BCH was poised to be the solution to Bitcoin's woes if the S2X fork completely hosed both systems and brought everything crumbling down. So people started buying BCH with their ETH. Now that the S2X fork isn't happening people are moving their money back into ETH. |

The tx fees suck because the value is so high
I did 6 btc tx yesterday with electrum using dynamic fees within 2 blocks. They averaged 3$ each. Is that too damn high? In fact, yes. Imagine when millions of people are opening and closing LN channels or executing smart contracts. It is not my intention to spread FUD, but we have an eventual problems between our hands. I really hope bitcoin can scale offchain, as onchain. |

We can celebrate, but let's not gloat guys.
I, for one, praise the S2X camp for achieving the internal consensus to pull back from the brink.
We will eventually, in a safe and orderly manner, address their concerns regarding scaling.
In the end, they behaved like rational adults. Perhaps we can have nice things.
Well you're a very nice guy. On the other hand I will never trust any of these guys. They proved they are anti-bitcoin when they didn't back down months ago. These deceitful cowards will be back for your nice things.  |

No word of a lie, just did one Thursday; it arrived at its destination account yesterday and it was no charge. I was so surprised when the bank teller told me "No charge. It's free!", but then it worked out to nearly a 5% flogging on the exchange rate differential - they now make their money in other, more subtle ways. |

Screw it. I'm going to violate a forum rule for this one. +1 |

Can we launch a public request to Jihan to donnate a few servers (no longer needed anyway) to Kraken? At least he would serve some public interest by doing so... .  Kraken are actually doing quite well with their laptop. i alway´s thought they are using a C64 |

This is interesting, I hope everyone realizes Bitcoin is built and tested it works Here is the part where everybody else comes in Build on top of it.... Build around it Build with it You can do almost anything to make it cheaper, faster, more efficient |
