Is that LTC just pumping - or are people using it for ways to transfer money cheaply between exchanges?

I don't know about anyone else, but I definitely used it for this purpose during the BitcoinCash fork.

Makes sense - can't in all conscience use BCH

[Arriemoller]

Indeed. Hopefully there will be a less anti Western / pro China / pro North Korea leader in charge soon..

Really? You mean Zims will be better if colonial status is reestablished in this country?

Of course not.
Trade doesn't mean we go back to the British rule / pillaging / apartheid days.

Surely it would be at least fruitful for the people of Zimbabwe and the Zimbabweans over here if the British prime minister made a statement about the situation in Zimbabwe and to at least state that Britain is open to have a conversation with whomever is in charge next to see if we can help.
The British government has already stated many times that foreign aid will not be cut. I don't see why a Zimbabwe without a dictator could not benefit from that.
There is life in the world outside of the EU and we should be keen to help considering the historical (mostly I agree negative) and language ties.

BUT BUT by help do you mean send in the economic hitmen with globalization? IMF Trojan loans etc? Or by help do you mean covertly funding a coup and/or economic sanctions against the population aka IRAQ/IRAN/N.KOREA/VENEZUELA/CUBA etc

Communist much?

I dont know how to respond to this.

American much?

No, European much.

Haha no not European or are you saying you are European, because that pretty much means American. Who controls Europe through NATO again?

What does that have to do with what geographical region in the world I am from? Don't you know the difference between politics and geography? Are your IQ subpar or does your country simply have really bad schools?

Ok lets recap...

You said it is better for Zimbabwe to move away from China/East and have closer ties to USA/Europe/West
I said that history teaches us me (obviously not you) that African countries in general do not benefit from closer ties to the West.
I mentioned the usual scenario of IMF/Economic Hitmen or Dictator sponsorship/coup deta is NOT a benefit/any help to African/3rd world countries
You replied... "Communist Much"
I then replied in a similar childish manner "American Much" since you brought up the old US Cold War mindset of anyone disagreeing with US economic policy must mean Communism
You replied "No, European Much"
This made no sense to me. I wasnt sure if you were insinuating that I am European or that you are. Either way I replied that Europe and the US is the same garbage.
Now your bringing IQ into the equation.

My Conclusion?

This conversation is going nowhere and you are a tool. Maybe read a little history before making stoopid comments about politics.

Happy bitcoining

No I didn't, that was bitcionbunny.
And your comments have nothing with history to do, they are just political crap. Said by someone who has actually studied history.

0.1 btc is the big one. there's a huge buy wall there.

Sorry your right you started with the childish US mentality comment "Communist Much". The comments before regarding moving away from East and to the West was indeed bitcoinbunny. At least that was a proper comment and not a childish remark but hey. It can get confusing here on The Wall!!!

Lightning atop Bitcoin Segwit? With everyone settling twice a day? Great - you've just set the max number of users at less than quarter-million.

Is that what you wanted? If not, perhaps you need to devote more thought.

I'm not sure where you get your quarter-million number from. Bitcoin before gets us 3 to 4 tx/s or about half a million transactions a day, with Segwit that doubles, and if sometime in the future the blocksize is increased (the proper consensus agreed way), that doubles again. So we have 4 million transactions a day.

Each of those transactions can be Lightning'd, as opening or closing a channel is just one transaction. So that's 4 million times maybe 1 million, or about a trillion transactions per day.

This does not include any other off chain scaling solutions or payment channels that are not Lightning, such as inside the same wallet (coinbase to coinbase.)

Also, LN is not for those BIG transactions you mention, for those you use regular "blockchain" tx.

What I meant is that on LN is about equivalent in total value to one of my big transactions.

Has bitcoin broke the all time high which it did just last month yet?

I slept right after work so missed all the drama on the bitcoin exchange troll boxes when it surpassed $7950 which I think was the highest it managed to get to late in October for the new ATH since mid 2016.

[Dabs]

We're not trying to kill Bitcoin Segwit.

... to take its rightful place as the dominant Satoshi derivative.

The second sentence means the first sentence is false. By trying to be the dominant Satoshi derivative, you're trying to kill Bitcoin. (Bitcoin already includes Segwit, no need to be redundant.)

[Dabs]

If the transaction is valid, every node will broadcast it. The miners may not include it in a block, if there are transactions in the queue with a non-zero fee, especially while the mempool is over capacity for the next block. As soon as there is free space in the next block, zero fee transaction will get through - of course, the chance to empty the mempool below capacity is in question these days :-)

You must be an old-timer. That's the old code. The new code most nodes are running requires a 1 sat/byte fee for them to broadcast the transaction.

Oh, i must check that. Sounds reasonable; also need to upgrade my node it seems.
Thanks

You're all old-timers. There's a minimum relay fee, which, if included, will get relayed by almost all nodes. It used to be 0.0001 (or ten thousand sats). If the fee is any lower, it doesn't get relayed. Confirmation is another matter.

$80,000,000 buy order for BCASH?

Will it or will it not get pulled?

Maybe this order is just a short cover from another exchange?

[BlindMayorBitcorn]

If you drank the Blockstream/Core koolaid and dumped your BCH, you can buy them back at 4 BCH per BTC.  

So close meme

PS. The stupid people that fell for this nonsense are on your head!

i think we all can guess who owns it.

and its fate is way, way more exciting than anything bitcoin is gonna do in the next 24 hours.

Of course we are using ltc for fast transactions...  plus @coblee is a rockstar

Don't forget he ran a country wide pump and dump complete with wash trading and exchange DDoS. I imagine Korea burned most of it.
