ever have an overwhelming feeling of guilt even though you did not behave badly?

[Ludwig Von]

Yeah where is Proudhon? Love that guy. I giggle at some of the newbs here who think he is a serious troll.  

In other news, these price predictions seem so far fetched that I can't even wrap my brain around it. But I wouldn't be sad.

"A serious troll", is that something like Mr. VSP Dimon?

On a serious note, something bizarro with Stamp : I am logged in, can make orders et all, but when I go to my account page it says that my password is too old and that I must create a new one.
The password is the one I created when I opened my account with them, I think a month ago.

security measure. bitstamp wants you to create a new password every month (or even twice a month) by default. I think it is possible to set it up in way that it will not ask you to change your password, but I would recommend to stick with default setting. I keep my old passwords in the same place as the new one. over time creates a bulk of passwords and it is sometimes hard, even for myself to figure out which is the latest one. extra little safety...

edit: just saw that your question was already answered, sry

Still welcome, thanks. And indeed, safer but more complex... . I think keeping the same PW only is possible with 2FA.

It's just your conscience telling you that you did.

Well good morning Bitcoinland.

Nice to see we're back up over $10k again, hopefully to stay... currently $10601USD/$13502CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

Old coins total $12348USD/$15745CAD each (Coinmarketcap).

Let's get over $11k and then we can think about ATHs again.

Go Bitcoin go.

Shhh! We're being monitored by the president. Let's try to act like nothing is happening.

Fuck him, and all who sail with him.
He's got no power now.

can you name me a new technology that has been banned? why on earth would bitcoin be the first one? digitization of our entire culture is inevitable. digitization is in the sam e league as industrialization. it cannot be stopped.  

Possession of a Guggenheim printing press might have cost you your life at some points in history.
Distillation is widely illegal on an individual basis. Absinthe suffered a worldwide ban post-WW2. Hell, even alcohol itself was illegal in the US for a good time during Prohibition.
Equipment used for counterfeiting currency is illegal
Torrenting DRM material is illegal
Anti-DRM technology is illegal
Owning gold as currency was illegal in the US during wartime
Certain drugs and technology to produce them, both natural and synthetic are largely illegal.
Weapons of mass destruction are illegal (as mentioned)
Firearms are illegal in many countries
Hell, the Internet is even illegal in some countries. Certain social media is illegal behind China's great firewall.
There is even talk of making some types of encryption illegal

Basically, any technologies involved in the spread of information or ideas or substances that affect thinking or could cause harm or disruption to society have, at some point or another, been banned or attempted to be banned by some government. Governments and those in power will do anything to maintain the status quo.

I agree however that most technologies cannot be stopped. Won't stop them from trying, though.

i was asking for examples of technologies as a whole that have been globally banned. except for some weapons. and you list weapons and local/temporary bans and ... drugs.

mempool spam and shitcash pump, there we go again.

Fk them.

Last time I checked, the CME Group, CBOE, and the NASDAQ were not going to be trading BCash futures. Or any other shitcoin futures for that matter.

[pera]

Bleh. Mempool back @ 60mb worth of 0-5sat transactions to slog through.

Sheeeit.

Years back, when Satoshi dice was popular, that would make sense. Maybe even be common. These days? No one processes zero fee transactions, and everyone knows that. Why, besides spam, would you send them?

AFAIK most nodes wouldn't relay spam transactions like those, so I'm not certain if this could have any impact in the network.

They seem to have less and less impact onto the market, BTC or BTH. That thing seems to be dying.

I don't have a president.

However I do have a prime minister considering a CBDC (central bank digital currency).

They already gave up on Mintchip. I wonder what's different this time.

Good question. Wasn't Mintchip during the Harper regime?

Is anybody here still buying?

Of course.

If the price goes down, then buy, and if the price goes up then sell.

The price has been going up and down in the past two days... so just apply the formula.

That's day trading. That's madness. I'd get r0ached for sure.

You do not have to call it day trading because it depends on the spread of your buy/sell increments.  Of course, it is better to practice with smaller increments, and then as you get used to the practice and you stack up your orders on each side, then you can just sit back and if your increments are large enough, you might not need to do anything for several days, and perhaps weeks at a time.

Currently my increments are $500, so they are executing fairly frequently; however, you could have increments of $1000 or $1500 or some other amount.  I would suggest an amount lower than mine to practice, and then thereafter, once you have practiced a bit to increase your increments.  Good luck (even though you sound very disinclined to take these kinds of measures and you would rather worry your little bot head off      )....

My friend says: it´s a bubble, way to expensive. I don´t buy.
And when it goes down, he says: See, i told you, it´s bursting. I don´t buy.

Guess what comes out of it: He doesn´t buy, ever !


What can i do (he´s my friend) ?
I´ll shake him until he comes to his senses   Don´t know, what to do else.

You should not force or coerce people...  even if they are friend, relative or f-buddy.

Just laugh at his stupid ass, and perhaps he will come to his senses at around $20k, if he is lucky.

Been doing this the part couple of days successfully increasing what I put in, pennies at a time.

I have an understanding of stop sell orders and of course instant orders... What I want is "when prove rises to x buy" but not sure how to do... On stamp, mind.
